182 Dashboard Lights

[mac1979]

Hi all,

Just a bit of advice a friend has asked me to get. His 182 has pretty much all lights on the dash - traction control, ABS, airbag and service light are all on.

I know his front wheel bearing needs doing and a new ABS ring fitting (think he is sticking a new hub on) but I was wondering if anyone could help? Would they all be on if it was something like an ABS sensor?

Thanks in advance.

Help.... lol

If it needs a new ABS ring then that could be the cause of the ABS and traction control lights. Airbag light wouldn't be linked to that.

It's all speculation unless you can get it on diagnostics and check properly really.

I had that once, made me lol. All went off when I turned the on and back off again. Best part was the handbrake like being on

Yeah it has a cracked drivers ABS ring. Ive told him that he needs to replace that, the wheel bearing and both ABS sensors. Clear the faults and get it scanned again.

Tell him to get the ABS ring replaced and see if the fault goes away. Don't change the ABS sensors unless you know they're at fault. They're bloody expensive on clios with ESP!

All faults relating to the ABS system are self clearing iirc so if the problem is fixed, the lights will go off.

Thanks mate. Will be doing the ring for him this week, hopefully will work

I had this exact same set of lights on for quite a while.
Then it would go away, then return, then go again!

i tried replacing a few parts but as mentioned above you turn the engine off and on again and the lights would go!

I have had no lights on for about 3000 miles now, thank god!
